EE 352 - Why I Spent €500,000 on a Domain Name - Peter Coppinger - The Teamwork Story

Peter Coppinger, the brilliant mind behind Teamwork, joins us for a fascinating chat recorded live at the Republic of Work in Cork in partnership with the EIIS Innovation Fund. Peter’s entrepreneurial journey from a passionate college student to a successful business mogul is nothing short of inspiring. From his early days of web development and local business pitches to the spontaneous decision to acquire the domain teamwork.com for a whopping $500,000, Peter's story is filled with bold moves and valuable lessons. Peter & Dan bootstrapped Teamwork for over 14 years before raising $70 million in 2021. We delve deep into the reasons behind this and their drastic change of strategy.  We cover everything from their transition from client services to product development, their first sale, and to why SAAS is the best business model in the world!  This episode is a must-listen for anyone eager to understand the intricacies of building a positive company culture and making fearless business decisions.   --- My Season Partners Local Enterprise Offices: https://bit.ly/4bgUdPv Iconic Offices: https://bit.ly/3vPQAzF
